After four months of grueling human rights work in war-torn Angola, Ginny Carter returns to a cold, lonely New York City just days before Christmas. Haunted by a past tragedy in Los Angeles that she refuses to revisit, she has transformed herself into a global nomad, finding solace only in the most dangerous and desolate assignments. While her sister Becky pleads for her to return home to face their father’s declining health, Ginny remains determined to avoid the pain of the holidays by losing herself in the next mission. However, a life lived in shadows and shells may finally be reaching a breaking point as she struggles to reconcile her duty to the world with the family she left behind.
